  3. Combine butter and both sugars in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Mix in cornstarch mixture, then add yogurt and vanilla and beat thoroughly. Add dry ingredients in small batches, beating well after each addition.

  4. Drop tablespoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.

Cook’s Notes:

Nonfat yogurt can be used instead of low-fat yogurt.

You can use this basic cookie recipe to come up with your own. Add up to 2 cups of your favorite add-ins, in whatever combination you like. Don’t overcrowd add-ins or it will change the end results of your cookies. Mix them in after Step 3.

For larger cookies, use an ice cream scoop and increase bake time to 15 to 17 minutes.
